BRASS CHOIRA Fantasy on Jingle Bells arr. Darrol Barry
COMBINED CHOIRSPersonent Hodie Traditional
arr. Lara Hoggard
Let youthful voices resound today, joyfully praising Him who is born for us, who is given unto us by the most high God, and brought forth from a virgin.
He is born in the world, is wrapped in swaddling clothes and placed in a manger in a stable of beasts. He is the ruler over all things. (The prince of darkness has lost his prey!)
Three wise men come, bearing gifts. They have found the child by following a little star. Adoring the Lord, they offer Him gold, incense and myrrh.
Let all young choristers now sing as did the angels, praising Him who has come into all the world: “Glory to God in the Highest!”

During my Artist Diploma studies, I received economic support to grow as a musician in venues outside school and especially abroad.
In 2016, I attended the Bassoon International Festival in Bogotá, Colombia. I participated in master classes, showcases, concerts, and recitals with faculty from Brazil, Venezuela, USA, Argentina, and participants from diff erent Latin American countries. In 2017, I was accepted into the “Tafelmusik Baroque Summer Institute” in
Toronto, Canada. � is life-changing experience transformed how I approach Baroque music.
� ese wonderful experiences were made possible by the Duquesne Musical Associates. My deepest appreciation to those who have donated and are contributing. � ese resources not only make an impact in our careers; they also position the Mary Pappert School of Music as a leading musical institution.

Founded in 1878 by priests and brothers of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit, Duquesne University is consistently named among the nation’s top Catholic universities for its academic rigor, quality of teaching, and tradition of service. The University today has nearly 10,000 undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in nine schools of study.
Both U.S. News and World Report and the Princeton Review give Duquesne a top-tier ranking for academic quality, and the University is listed on the U.S. President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll, with distinction, for contributions to Pittsburgh and communities around the globe. In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Princeton Review’s Guide to Green Colleges acknowledge Duquesne’s commitment to sustainability.
Duquesne’s Mary Pappert School of Music has a well-earned reputation as a national leader in performance, music education, music therapy, music technology, and sacred music. The University’s mission is to serve God by serving students, and the School of Music does the utmost to ensure that students benefit from the finest instruction and the best academic resources.
Among the dedicated teachers and scholars who make up the faculty of the Music School are members of the world-renowned Pittsburgh Symphony, as well as other artists who are acclaimed performers of opera, jazz, and sacred music. Our students have access to state-of-the-art music technology and other learning resources, including 68 Steinway pianos. Duquesne is, in fact, the first Catholic University in the world to be numbered among an elite group of “All-Steinway” schools.
The School of Music is also home to two first-rate concert venues: PNC Recital Hall, a 250-seat auditorium, and the recently constructed Dr. Thomas D. Pappert Center for Performance and Innovation, an acoustically superb, technologically sophisticated space for recording and performing.
